Normal BMI 6': You are very tall and your ideal weight is an important question for you because there are compressive impacts on your spine and joints from your height alone. They are amplified by the mechanical impacts of excessive weight. Depending upon your lean body mass - The percent of your scale weight due to muscle and bone- a healthy body weight is about 150 to 170 pounds. You know when you look best!
